Unlike lots of good things in life, "there are no side effects to breathing." While food supplies energy, "we get most of our energy through breathing." Healthy breathing and sleeping habits, plus movement and whole foods, are foundational to health I find.

This describes perfectly how I think I was breathing at work. I felt like the adrenaline was pumping all the time and I was having panic attacks. I was signalling to my body that I was in danger and was constantly in fight or flight mode. Since I’ve controlled my breath I literally feel like a different person. I can’t believe something so simple can be so life changing.

I started taping my mouth a few days ago while I sleep and feel so much better in the morning

Very true and helpfull video. According to my youtube breathing journey , 4:4:4:4 is good, coherent breathing is good, rhythmic breathing is good, 4-7-8 is good , 2-3 is good, and much more, with so many techniques that are recommended its more and more confusing . The pardadox is the more you think about it the more your gonna induce anxiety as in : - I have to breath slowly , calm down etc.. Sure breathing is important but If you have low dopamine receptors active overall it wont do anything. You must balnce, food , exercise, sleeping, breathing. Its a total equation not just 1 simple miracle solution.

Near the end you cemented on a background sound to help you get into a good breathing rythm. How do you get that sound pattern.

What’s the app he uses for breathing while at work?

So interesting

I've been having blood pressure issues and even though I've had doctors looking at all kinds of different things that could be causing it, I'm really starting to think it's mainly related to my breathing. I've been focusing on taking controlled 4 second in 8 second out breaths and it's caused me to notice that I normally take short choppy breaths...and that's assuming I'm even breathing at all. Sometimes I catch myself holding my breath unconsciously. Focusing on breathing multiple times per day is helping get the BP lowered. When I brought this up to my doctor he was somewhat dismissive of the idea, but I find it hard to dismiss when I can reliably lower my BP by just relaxing and focusing on taking long, full breaths.

@paulaspagnuolo8285

Жыл бұрын

Your doctor is wrong. There is even an FDA approved device (I think it’s called Respirate) that lowers BP specifically by helping people learn to breathe. I applied the concept of controlled breathing and it lowered my BP significantly.

this is also very helpful for me, recovering (?) from pulmonary fibrosiis and emphesyma. It releases me from fear. More becomes possible in the way of movement

Mr. James, Which app do you use for breathing exercises? Montreal, Quebec Canada

I bought two of his books one called breath and the other called Get high now…..amazing books amazing author and very informative shoutouts to the pulmonary capabilities performed

I wear a fitbit and notice that my heart rate goes up significantly when I do breathing exercises like the box method. Is this supposed to happen?

Why no demo of your breathing technique.

yep thats right. i did the same thing. my life is so relaxed now . that cortisol and adrenaline is good but only in very small amounts for short periods, right? thank you :}

Healthy breathing will get you through covid, promise!

I am super interested in this subject, because I was stressed my whole childhood, and life. I began to have issues with hyperventilation, in my teens. A guy stopped me on my walk to my girlfriend's house. At that age we were boy crazy, but when this guy asked for my phone number, I was so nervous, I guess. I tried to be kind, explaining that I didn't give my number to strangers, but he wouldn't back off. I guess, I hyperventilated, and I passed out. He took me/ home in a cab, but I still didn't give him my phone number. My sister had similar issues, and I am wondering if it could be genetic, or just because we were raised in the same environment. I have been trying the exercises you recommend, but one thing that is important is that I have developed apnea, but I read in my research on the subject, that quote...People who have had open abdominal surgery will most likely have respiratory issues. My issues began RIGHT after my open abdominal gall bladder surgery, and I have been questioning doctors for years with no success. I learned that statement in a medical journal in my years of research. When I lie down, I actually feel, and sense that IF I go to sleep, my brain will not give the inhale command to my lungs. I can actually feel the slackness of sensation, that creates the signal to inhale. I thought it was a damaged diaphragm, but my doctor said, if I had that, I would have presented more symptoms, that would be much wose. I awaken, at times hyperventilating, with a rapid pulse. I put my nightshirt over my face, and take in carbon dioxide, and bear down to slow the heart rate, and it stops. For years, I thought I was dying because I couldn't breathe upon awakening. How I reached 76 years old I will never know. Thank you for such USEFULL, and VALUABLE information.

I know how to breathe in. How do I breathe out? Mouth or nose?

I have tried this technique for a couple weeks- in 4, hold 4, exhale 6, hold 2- And definitely useful. Best advice yet. But to me still a bit uncomfortable. I have always found breathing exercises difficult and I get the feeling breathing exercises are of limited benefit to me. But my personality is such that I don't have problems with stress or touching spirituality. However this breathing technique works well, and I say this with seriousness, when I am sitting on a toilet doing number 2.
